Champion your Cause
The Visual Arts have been an integral vehicle used to educate and advocate for personal, political, humane, and environmental causes. Your team needs to identify a cause, and then create a series of 3 posters to be used in an ad campaign to promote awareness of that cause. Reference historical and contemporary artists known to advocate for passionate causes. Create an original series of 3 posters that not only exude passion for your chosen cause but demonstrate good design principles, incorporate text in some way, and center around a unifying message. You may choose the size and media of your final design. Exhibit your portfolio of research with your completed poster designs. Research may include the elements and principles of design, perspective, text/typography, sketches, reflections, written notes, and experiments in different art media.
